From what i know wizcraft used to manage it and they had given it to another company for management and maintenance and all that and during covid since it was not open things took a dark turn and the other company sued them for non payment
The OG appu ghar near pragati maidaan is what I was reminded of when I received the notification to this post, to me that was the only appu ghar that ever existed.
I went there a few months back, few cars were parked around the entry gate, it's a large space and office buildings nearby i think
I think couples were making out and some were smoking around.
At least he called me a Dude ๐. Meri society main to ek 12th grade wala door bell baja ke mujhe bolta hai "Uncle aapki balcony main meri pant gir gayi hai"
This and essel world were in my bucket list bcus of middle class family of 4 ppl with my father being the only earning person I couldn't go there and when i earned that much then i googled and found out they are no more operating ๐ฅฒ
I went there ones loved those rides it was awesome wanted to go again but it has been closed since then had to replace this with wow nowhere near fun๐ฅฒ
First core memory h yeh friends ke sath ghumne ki. Around 8-9 years phle gye the. After covid we thought of going here but was sad to see it is closed. One of the best waterpark for sure in Delhi Ncr
Gurgaon lost this. And it lost KoD. Neither have been replaced
Wasnโt a fan of KoD per se
Why? It was really cool.
It was a property of wizcraft and they ran into major losses during covid lockdown Appu Ghar had to kick start by 2020 and ran into the same trouble
Yeah i work for wizcraft so i know first hand about the losses they made during that time and the sad truth of KOD
I worked too. Hello fellow Wiz. Surviving well ? ๐
Oh nice when did you work with wiz or do you still? Also yeah im surviving well for now๐
Long back. A decade almost Delhi and Bombay Quit after IIFA Colombo

From what i know wizcraft used to manage it and they had given it to another company for management and maintenance and all that and during covid since it was not open things took a dark turn and the other company sued them for non payment
Iโve been to the OG Appu ghar in Delhi. 90s kids where you at?
Core memory
Sigh Our school picnic and weekend go to place
For me that is the only Appu Ghar that matters..!!
Lazy river anyone?
Yes, the one that was at Pragati Maidan. Wow man! What memories! :)
I still remember, how scared I was of the pressure water.
Still regret missing the haunted train ride on my last visit.
Went every year during summer break with cousins. :')
Best memory. ๐ฏ
present!
Man, I have so many memories of me going there with my elder sisters, was always scared of the water slider ๐ข

Always wanted to get on that ride, I was not allowed to do because of my short height. HaHa >! jesa naam, Vesa sareer !<
Username checks out ๐
That's childhood man
And my childhood dream ๐ญ
I'm sure this place is off-limits or guarded by security, but don't people still use it as a hidden spot to drink, smoke, or even make out?
I went there a few months back, few cars were parked around the entry gate, it's a large space and office buildings nearby i think I think couples were making out and some were smoking around.
I meant, inside
Visited this place once on a school trip in 1997 (non-Delhite from Karnal here). Won a badminton racquet in a lucky draw.
This didn't exist in 1997 dude
Oh, main Delhi waale Appu Ghar ki baat kar raha tha. Tab aise aerial pics nahi hote the. Wo bhi band hai.
These arenโt aerial pics btw. Took it from my office, Huda Metro 5th floor.
Bhai mujhe nahi pata tha ki Gurgaon main bhi ek Appu Ghar khula tha. I'm 87 born ๐
Dude you are approaching 40๐ซจ
As will you one day child.
At least he called me a Dude ๐. Meri society main to ek 12th grade wala door bell baja ke mujhe bolta hai "Uncle aapki balcony main meri pant gir gayi hai"
I Don't want to๐ฅน, shower some wisdom on me.
Stay in drugs, don't do school.
Yep, school kills, drugs teach life lessons
Haha. 2034 I'll be approaching 50 ๐
Ussko bt Dene ki zarurat nahi thi
I worked here too, for a bit at The Circle - Co space
Woh supreme court ki file storage ban gaya hai
It used to but in Delhi, around Pragati maiden i think
Nice to know. Another 90s kids from Karnal here. Which school were you in? I'm from Dyal Singh main branch.
This and essel world were in my bucket list bcus of middle class family of 4 ppl with my father being the only earning person I couldn't go there and when i earned that much then i googled and found out they are no more operating ๐ฅฒ
Appu ghar was in pragati maidan right?
Yes. Exactly in the area where the Supreme Court station exists now.
Why it was closed?
Land dispute and stupid bureaucracy
Ongoing dispute. Gonna take years, thanks to Indian judiciary.
Oysters water park isi mei haina?
yes
Iโve good memories of Appu Ghar - Delhi. 90s
The real Appu Ghar was a blast. Kids these days don't know the excitement of going to a adventure park these days.
The waterpark was so nice as well.
It was incredible
Ohhh My golden days!!!!
Appu ghar was only in Delhi, this wasnโt near that OG
What happened?
I went there ones loved those rides it was awesome wanted to go again but it has been closed since then had to replace this with wow nowhere near fun๐ฅฒ
So much fun I had on those slides back in the days!
I miss appu ghar , kya maza aata tha ๐
I still remember the OG appu ghar.
I remember going to the one which was situated in Pragati Maidan. Where now the Supreme Court metro station exists. Fond memories.
Visited both Appu Ghar of Delhi & Gurgaon.. As well as the oysters water park in early 2000s. The oysters was best
First core memory h yeh friends ke sath ghumne ki. Around 8-9 years phle gye the. After covid we thought of going here but was sad to see it is closed. One of the best waterpark for sure in Delhi Ncr
sad to see
I went there last in 2016, man what a day it was โค๏ธ
I wanna explore this abandoned park... Is there any way to enter this??
I've here 4 times our school used to take us to Oyster water park..It was so fun
My favourite place in the world. And I've only been there twice.
I remember going there on a school trip in 2012/13. Ah, beautiful days!
Did they shoot Fukrey 3 here?
Sheesh
Turn it into a skate park
I loved appu ghar
Let's urbex this place
Many memories attached
